The Tanners Hall in Darlington

It's a little dark but it's a 'spoons at the end of the day. The Mrs and I went after church on a budget. Great decision. The place was Halloween decorated and had some good food deals on. Highlight was trying a bit of her pasta which made me think I'll get some next time. 27/10/24

Always a good fun night. Staff spot on.

Some scrubbers in the place but the food and service was very good at 10.30pm. Better than I expected

Great place for food and drinks

Can't comment on the food as went there for a drink. Friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. Great prices too which is always a bonus!

It's a Wetherspoons so you know what is on offer but like all wetherspoons they cannot cook a fried egg without over or under cooking it. Maybe I am fussy.

Good real ale good well done Wetherspoons

Went for curry club Great value curries and Pepsi. Easy app ordering

It's another Wetherspoons, cheap and cheerful. You know what you are going to get, including customers dressed in Blue wigs, customers who burp as loudly as possible when your eating food and generally people who are loud and obnoxious.

Since ash has taken over as manager she doing a great job her and her staff make feel so welcome and great customer service keep up the great work

Terrible now looks dirty inside carpet dirty food not very nice was a lovely pub lost its touch now

Friendly staff and ok service but portions of food are clearly getting smaller every time I visit and tend to be served lukewarm at best. Prices are very competitive so you get what you pay for I guess.

Food was excellent and the pub was nice, calm and quiet. The only problem is that the lady who served us our food didn't have her hair tied back, her hair was really long and some of it could get into the food which is unhygienic.

Great fine dining experience with plenty wine selection, very reasonably priced and staff are very friendly 10/10 would get leathered here again

Yeh it's as a wetherspoons is a nice pub

Ashleigh was so helpful nothing was to much trouble a great asset to tanners

Decent food nice atmosphere good beer.

Good food good beer and good atmosphere sat outside on a beautiful evening.

Cheap and cheerful, good atmosphere, food is great value for money

Great place for anybody whatever age. No airs and graces, just a working class bub.

Great priced food great beers clean tidy family meals steak night steak night to mention a.few

Another great Wetherspoons. Atmosphere was nice, food was great, and service was wonderful. A definite yes for a meal.

Was ok for the money spent will definitely use again

Had a morning wander around Darlington after visiting from our home a hundred miles away. We were in need of coffee and strolled into The Tanners Hall on Skinnergate so named due to the fact that the 'Skin Market' was based there. No longer a skin market, the building is now a cheap food and drinks venue under the Wetherspoons banner. We knew what we were getting, or to be fair, were getting ourselves, after the server had thrust two empty cups across the bar. The hot drinks machine did it's thing and we retired to a traditionally slightly sticky table to enjoy the beverage. The pub seemed comfortable enough and although we didn't eat there, it merited a second brew. We left the place happy enough.

Poor food,chips cold.Buger tuff and chewy.

Nice Wetherspoons! Tried the new Fiesta Brunch and wasn't disappointed. Quick service and nice staff. X

We had fish and chips today 20 5 24 they were lovely jubbly

Typical Spoons, good choice of beers,lagers and cider also real ale,

All the usual attributes of a Wetherspoons. Busy. Cheap beer. Toilets upstairs. Great range of meals. Premises would have benefited from having door staffing. Too many rowdy customers.

always good fast service and good prices!

This is a nice comfortable pub.

First Visit...but as always with Wetherspoons..Great value for money.

Went for drinks only during the holidays. Good place to be, pretty busy. Is fair with pricing and value offered. From young to old - all are there and enjoy.

Clean, large, good choice of beers.

Bad food and can't get a good sit in without being knocked by people going to and from the bar

I have eaten Wetherspoons steak and kidney pie in several other Wetherspoons pubs and always enjoyed them and thought them great value. Tanners Hall served up the worst pie I have ever had - dried out inside with the filling in a lump, the suet pastry was almost impossible to cut through and the gravy served on the side in its own little jug was a congealed blob at the bottom of the jug. And not even hot. Revolting. And no member of staff in sight to speak to. I left it and walked out.

Quick and relatively cheap bar food. Always comes out quickly and is tasty.

It's a Wetherspoon's, I truly don't know what people expect. When you go to a "Spoons" you expect low prices, terrible food, minimum wage service from generally children, a rough atmosphere on the night and the old locals propping up the bar from morning till closing. They're awful and Tanners is everything you'd expect.

Truly awful. The food was undercooked and sent back. The waiter surly and unhelpful. I wouldn’t darken their doors. Beer tasted odd, chemically.

Chips and mushy peas cold and friends chips and egg cold and certainly not Wiltshire ham

Food was cold had to be returned and heated up. Advertised as Wiltshire ham but was thin and out a packet . Very disappointed

Breakfast was served very quick which is good, and it was delicious. Staff really friendly and helpful so thank you guts you do a good job. Will certainly come here again when in the area.

Quite.. better seating arrangements...

Nice food staff ok no problems A+

Terrible food, cold ,rude manager. Definitely would not recommend this pub and will not be returning ever again. Disappointing

Drinks very good price and the food was alright. Can't fall off at those prices mind

A fairly typical Wetherspoons pub. Good value.

It is a cozy pleace with tasty beers. Staff is very friendly and polite.

Typical tanners, cheap and cheerful, very quiet

Found hair in my food...not great...

A very good atmosphere and a very good selection of different ales to choose from.

Usual hangout spot, super friendly staff. Very good atmosphere

Very busy at Christmas, good value as always

Only had a couple of drinks as I was on time limit having to go to the station to catch my train back to Lancs

We did like it good curry.... fish chips just eat we ordered sorry no pic at this time

Had traditional breakfast tasteless and cold, and not the first time. No more Tanners gone down hill.

Very loud and noisy, customers shouting which was unnecessary 😒

Tanners is always busy, been open 20+ years. It's a bog standard 'spoons in a large shop unit on one of the main shopping streets in Monte Darlo but.... I don't think it's ever been refurbished, the gents toilets are and have always been rank. The staff are great and they look after the beer very well, the food is hit and miss, but never bad. It seems to me that TM and spoons are just taking the profit and not reinvesting, like many of the old 'spoons it's well overdue some of their profit being put back in by way of a comprehensive refurbishment.

Good food, had ordered the fish and chips with a drink. Service was decent enough although a bit slow. The ambience was good.

Cheap and cheerful and a good atmosphere.

Awesome place. Great service. Great staff. Food is spot on.

Always busy, but the staff always try to serve you in an orderly fashion, not as expensive as a lot of other places I could mention, anyone going out for a meal I can recommend and you won't be counting the pennies, and the amount of choices well go in yourself you certainly won't be disappointed, good luck,

Ordered fish and chips . Mushy peas were stone cold, fish had very little batter on. Used this place regularly and can honestly say it was the worst meal ever . Asked was everything okay, told them issues about cold food and was told I will see what we can do. Then proceeded to walk past me for at least 10 minutes saying nothing. Not a good thing to do when someone has complained. Was going to order more drinks but left instead.

Too noisy. Some tables rather tatty (our table No.11).

Good quality food. The service was great and a variety of beers and other alcoholic drinks. Vibe ..👌

A busy town centre 'Spoons. You know what you're getting food wise. The tables are a little too close for me, but cheap and cheerful

Only had time for a coffee and refill

Warm atmosphere, friendly staff, fast service, good menu, reasonable price, great pint, recommended.

Mixed grill was well overcooked, ok otherwise

i was with my wife for a drink, solo, after 10 minutes we noticed a lot of tables had empty plates and glasses on them, then a young lady came to clear the tables, her attitude was disgusting banging plates and glasses as she collected them , people were looking, i asked her very politely not to make so much noise.... then she kicked off asked me leave , which i did gladly after 30 years in the trade ive never met anyone so rude , apparently she was the manageress WOW, steer clear

Great as the toilets are not miles away.

Bought 3 meals 2 burger meal dry and more like childrens meal also a Panini chicken Was cold and bread was was very hard .

Normal spoons but staff were absolutely great and food was piping hot and fresh- manager was fabulous 👌

Was much better than our last visit.

Great afternoon with food and drink.

Highly disappointing. The poorest service and food I've ever experienced in a Wetherspoon's venue. Service: Sullen, dull and badly trained staff, devoid any customer engagement skills. Food: The onion bahjis were still frozen in the middle, the rice was in congealed lumps, the garlic bread sodden and dripping in some tasteless opaque grease (lard...?) and the beef Madras simply a mass of gristle. I returned the ice cold bahjis to the bar, and was greeted by a blank stare from the server, who didn't seem to be fully present. Eventually, I received the replacement bahjis, and they were hot, but dark to the point of being bitter. I expressed my surprise and disappointment at the poor quality of the food (with the same oddly 'absent' server) and received another long, blank stare. I thought he hadn't heard/understood, so repeated myself. 'Write in...' he grunted. Way, way below even an average Wetherspoon's. To be avoided.

most of the staff are ok but there's one ginger lad with glasses who thinks he's some kind of bar god. The beer is always well kept and the food is always decent. Some of the regular clientele are a bit iffy.

Just a Local pub ,good for Meeting up ,great service .

Lovely staff unfortunately our meal was cold 🥶 waitress asked how our meal was & right away she offered a free dessert 🍨 or a free pint 🍺 that’s why food is 3 Star

It's a depressing miserable place and the breakfast was stone cold. Won't be going back

Been going to Tanners a while and had great times there, but the service there today 17/06/23 was absolutely awful, not happy at all.

Good service and friendly staff. Large 6oz burger fairly disappointing but decent flavour.

Called in for breakfast. Good value and good service. The coffee refills were appreciated 🙂

Pepsi we had was flat and breakfast luke warm and basic but staff friendly and clean

Great cheap place for a drink with my friends after college. Some loud day-drinker drunks are the only issue. But the service is fast and LOVELY staff. This dude with glasses and tattoos was the nicest guy ever, gave great service.

Quiet and friendly and affordable.Older generation enjoying pints when we visited half 5 ish.

Lots of space, nice menu, it was an impromptu lunch with family,

The place is rotten and the bar staff are unbelievably rude , last night got asked to leave as we rufused to pay for a drink that was dropped off by a member of staff to OUR table I was disgusted , also the security snatched our paid for drinks away from us , one word for the place ROTTEN .

Leffe £3.72. Lively crowd in. Good ceramic. Full of families.

Fantastic staff and quick service ,unfortunately, our meals came out cold, but the staff changed them and gave us a pudding as an apology.Toilets were downstairs, which was a bonus, but they were in need of a good clean!!! There was not a lot of parking outside, but we did manage to find a space in a street round the corner, but you can only park there at certain times.Worth a visit if you're in the area or like me a Spoons fan.

Its weatherspoons once you been to one you been to them all.

Staff. Have no concept what so ever dealing with disabled people. They find disability funny. They don't listen or look at you when you try to tell them something. DISABLED PEOPLE ARE HUMAN TOO. I JUST HAVE NO VOICE. How rude.

Had fish n chips the chips very far to over cooked staff were nice and helpfull

Absolutely love Tanners, good food. Good wine and brilliant company like being at home 🏡q

Good choice of beers at very reasonable prices. Food is very good value.

Good news at reasonable prices .However.introduction of new floor furniture has spoiled the atmosphere of late.and led to a diminishing of custom.

A little faded, but staff were welcoming. And, being a Wetherspoons pub, still great value.

Went for an early valentines meal. Really enjoyed my food.

Cheap food, cheap beer. What more could you want?

Great beer and a vibrant atmosphere
